Just speaking from experiance. When I was younger, drove some cool 60s chevys in flat gray to black. Never had a problem in my area where the cops knew me, When I went interstate , they would always find a reason to check me out, like 59 in the 55mph zone while I was being passed by other cars.

Well, our old type 1 cucvs have no computers, and are reletivly easy to fix.

If your dash pad is in pretty good shape, but cracked, you can get a dash pad cover that you can glue on for about $100. I replaced one dash pad complete, for about 300, it was fine, but outgassed chemical smells for over a year. I did the dash pad cover on another cucv and it worked out fine...

These are the same 16 in rims used for years on 3/4 ton civy chevys. Check out a junk yard.

I had an occasionel death wobble in a 1008, started if I hit a pothole. Everything checked out tight. I knew the steering knuckle u joints were pretty bad with missing needle bearings in one side, but figured they could not be the problem as the hubs were unlocked, but when I replaced them...
